Amazon is listing all the Wave 1 ships as being in stock.

So X-Wings, Y-Wings, Tie Fighters and Tie Advanced are for sale again, at normal retail price, $14.99

Wave 2 and 3 are still in stock including the HWK, most of those are below retail, between $12 and $10.

So if you're looking for ships, you can now get them.

Ooo...thanks for the heads up!

Perhaps this is a sign FLGS's and other places will have them soon as well?

Been discussing that else where and it doesn't seem to.

Other online retailers still have Wave 1 stuff listed as out of stock. Plus the first day that Amazon had Wave 1 listed, they sold out of X-Wings, Y-Wings and Tie Fighters by like 6pm CDT, but now have more in stock.

The way FFG says they do things is to have everything sent from the printers to their warehouse in Roseville. Then they ship stuff out from there, so Amazon shouldn't of gotten it that much sooner then everyone else. Plus that FFG has told game shop owners that they won't send stuff to one retailer before they ship to all of them.

Letting Amazon get stock before other retailers can really hurt the ones that don't get it. Which tends to make them rather upset and likely to consider dropping the line all together. Which of course is bad for FFG.

Then there's the fact that the Upcoming page still lists the X-Wing and Tie Fighters as on the boat, and the Y-Wings and Tie Advanced as at the printer. So either they have stopped updating that page, which is something they've been very good about in the past... Or else something else is going on.

Myself I'm inclined to believe that Amazon had a few cases that they had missplaced and just now found. It wouldn't be the first time someone working in a wearhouse put something in the wrong spot and the inventory levels got screwed up.
